ZOOM Out Of Meetings

Cyberspace:
Use UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT to move the henchalien. Use ESC to bring up the terminal interface.

Terminal:
Use `exit` or `return` to return to cyberspace. Use `h` or `help` to pull up a list of possible commands. Some standard system commands are corrupted and may require tinkering to use. Executing a valid command takes a cyberspace second (exempt: `help`, `exit`, `return`, and `audio`).


Even being trapped (okay, maybe it's a vacation now) in cyberspace doesn't get you out of meetings. Especially not when you're a henchalien.

From the daily standup to the quarterly board meeting (though why you have to attend is absolutely beyond you), the inevitable meeting invites and "helpful" links are quickly taking over your little corner of cyberspace.

Worse: the links and invites clone themselves!

Soon you will have nowhere to go before you have to accept and link and are dragged into the meeting.

And then it's game over for you. Back to work. No more chatting with your new cyberghost friends, who incidentally also dislike meetings.

But until then, fly and be free. For as long as you can.
